Question

The two cylinders are similar. If the ratio of their surface areas is 9/1.44, find the volume of each cylinder. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth. A.
small cylinder: 152.00 m3
large cylinder: 950.02 m3
B.
small cylinder: 972.14 m3
large cylinder: 12,924.24 m3
C.
small cylinder: 851.22 m3
large cylinder: 13,300.25 m3
D.
small cylinder: 682.95 m3
large cylinder: 13,539.68 m3

Answer 1

r1² π : r2² π = 9 : 1.44
r1 : r 2 = 3 : 1.2
r2 = 1.2 · r1  / 3
r 2 = 0.4 · r1
If the two cylinders are similar than also: h 2 = 0.4 · h 2
V 1 = r1²   · π  · h1
V 2 = ( 0.4 r1)² π · 0.4 · h1 = 0.064 r1² · π · h1
V 2 ( small cylinder )= 0.064 · V 1 ( large cylinder ) 
851.22 m³= 13.300.25 m³ · 0.064
Answer: C )

Answer 2

The two cylinders are similar. If the ratio of their surface areas is 9/1.44, find the volume of each cylinder. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answer: out of all the available options the one that shows the correct volumes for each cylinder is answer choice C) small cylinder: 851.22 m³ & large cylinder: 13,300.25 m³.

I hope it helps, Regards.
